Preventing Brain Drain-Keeping and Learning Skills to be Successful (grades 6-8)


Enrichment - Youth / Academics -
Youth Summer 2025

Do you want to make sure your brain retains and improves on the learning in math and reading you did throughout the school year? Just as you exercise your body to stay in shape, you need to exercise your mind as well. Through individualized plans and assessments, our instructors will develop a lesson plan especially for you to keep your skills sharp, so you can start next year successfully. The flexible hours offer a chance to review skills that you need as well as provide a bridge between this year and next. Plan to attend at least 15 hours throughout the summer program. You may attend additional hours, if you wish.

Math curriculum offers computerized programs, math games and hands-on learning stations. English curriculum includes creative, expository and persuasive writing stations, interactive (online) lessons in grammar, and a focus on independent reading. Bring your own reading book or device (school i-Pad preferred), or check out a book from the DHMS Media Center, and notebook/journal for writing.

This program was created to allow students to participate around other summer events. Students can come for any amount of time from 7-11 each day (although we feel two hours is about the maximum for most students). This is open to students going into grades 5-8. Sign up for math, reading or both.
